Best Fit The Mold Poems
Anorexia NervosaA child
No more than 12 years old
Sees images of women
Thin
Beautiful
Rich
Wanted
She looks in the mirror
She doesn't see the image
Her body doesn't fit the mold
Movies, TV and magazines
Tell her she is not what they want
She is not thin
She is not beautiful
Everyday her eyes cry as she looks...

The Puzzle of LifeThe Puzzle of life
The puzzle of life is there for you,
ancient texts, part of the larger view,
the Karma view of sow and you reap,
vengeance for his murdered sheep,
thoughts of the Master-mind for you.
The spirit bank holds seven billion souls,
Where else from, babies join the...

The Runner and IThere was a little boy so blue
amongst the pain of life he grew
He wondered where he'd be one day
so Satan helped to lead the way
He longed to walk home in the sun
but evil forces made him run
The Fallen Angel's sick revenge
was to employ children to...

Jonah LeeYou are not wrong
So please don’t feel blue
But people, belittle
They’ll manipulate you
You are not wrong
Just because you’re unique
But people will judge
As they love to speak
You are not wrong
If you don’t fit the mold
Forget what they say
They’re naive and bold
You are not wrong
For just...

Selfless LoveYou give us blessings beyond compare
You don't care what's in it for you
You care for your Brothers, you care about the outcasts
You never say it's not a good time
With you, Everything's in its Right Place
With you, the puzzle is assembled
With you, there is order in...

B- Your gaze holds a gesture of tired impatience and wonder of if I self-hate because my color of skin don’t fit the American way of life or the...

My Doll, My Dachshund
An old abandoned house in the country, is where we saved our precious hound
Covered in mange, fleas, ticks and whatever deathly smell she had found
I called her name; from out of the yonder she came when she heard my...

I DoI've waited all my life,
For a love like yours and to call you my wife,
To have and to hold,
I know you fit the mold,
The key that fits perfectly into my heart,
The assurance that we will never grow apart,
Through thick...

Keep Singing SolomonI tried to write a poem the way that Solomon wrote about his prize,
But you don’t seem to fit the mold you don’t have a pair of flighty eyes.
And evidently he liked the fact and it seems that it raised his hopes,
When he would sniff...

The Devil You KnowI was strong, I thought.
I didn’t fit the mold,
Now I’m fractured where I was bold.
Like the heinous scar you thoughtlessly branded
I lost with the trust I took for granted.
So I bore the Scarlet A
And covered up your perversion
In my own promiscuous way.
Like...

I Thought You Were My BrotherI Thought You Were My Brother?
You say you’re my brother,
yet pretend I’m not there,
You shut me out of your life,
And don’t even care.
Do I “fit the mold” of what you think
a brother should be?
Are you thinking just of yourself,
and a lot...

Perfect FitI was the one who gave freely,
I gave you my lips, my hand, my heart
Without a second thought I let go of everything that told me
“Beware soft looks and soft touches..”
Whether you wanted it or not,
We were both swept up in the ideal
You...

I Had a Happy Friend Who Ended LifeShe always talked
like a happy little bird
tried to fit the mold
Wasn't strong enough
to keep up the facade
it is what ended her life
Early
I mostly think outside the square
I don't fit the mold
I can't be told
I'm older but
To some doing church
is like playing a game
so others think...
